Funny electrical anomalies?

Post by beverly »

Off Topic...

Just out of curiosity has anyone else notice some funny electrical activities going on lately (ending of summer till now?) eg UPS/laptop showing it needs a new battery or something is wrong.

During mid summer my UPS battery started blinking for a good 3 months "Battery Replacement Needed but never did". At the end of summer my laptop battery just started blinking (don't know what this one means). but mid fall they returned to normal. Today my HTPC fan went on high. then it calmed down all during idle. (No dust in the computer nor fins/heat sink. last week I could of sworn MJ cutted out for a sec but that could be at the 5min mark when something else happens
